How to check version of package installed by npm

Question

How to get the version of package installed using npm? I need to know the version of few packages for compatibility issue. Tried the following but did not work:

npm -v <package-name>

npm version <package-name>

Answer 1

These commands are used to check the version of npm, you can't use it to check the version of any package.

To check the version of packages installed using npm, you can run the following command:

npm list

This will print the package name along with the version
